Frequently Asked Questions

We go through every item donated and make every effort to find new homes for them. Some are resold to resellers which allows us to continue our free pick up service. We also donate hundreds of books each week to charity thrift stores and used bookstores. If your Church is looking for media for their sales contact us as we can provide some inventory without cost.

• pack the books and media in boxes, sturdy containers and/or strong reusable bags.
• Please keep all bags and boxes under 50 pounds (roughly 30 average hard cover books or 40 paperback books)
• Home Depot and Rona “Small moving boxes” are ideal.  Liquor boxes are also great as well.  
• any box that fits 30 books or less in fine

Unfortunately some items come in condition that doesn’t allow for us to donate or sell them. These items are then recycled whenever possible or in the worst case will be thrown out. Less then 5% of the items received are thrown out.

Our minimum quantity is 2 boxes (approximately 30 -40 books). We however do not have a maximum and have had many pickups exceeding 200+ boxes. So two boxes or more and we will be happy to schedule a pick up for you.
